Video: Ain't No Rock and Roll Music Video
Debut Single About 'Cowardly and Compliant' Rock Stars Like Pink and Gene Simmons Blows Up!
As it turns out, it’s not very rock and roll to obey and comply with nonsensical government mandates and lockdowns.
The rock music industry is taking heat for forgetting its roots and caving to the establishment as a powerful new anthem burst on the scene.
The debut song by Five Times August minces no words in calling out stars as “cowards” for complying with government COVID-19 mandates, raking in profits, and wallowing in gold records while selling out their rock-n-roll souls. The new single, “Ain’t No Rock And Roll” out on Baste Records laments the state of the liberal music scene as once-great anthems that challenged the government and authority have now given way to compliant “shills” repeating propaganda.
“All the words that were sung in the past, will never feel the same when we’re looking back,” sings songwriter Brad Skistimas who is Five Times August.
The video features images of recognizable stars juxtaposed with headlines and quotes, exposing many for their pro-mandate views and support of the government during the pandemic.
